The kind of shot I wished to see and/or take. I really like it.
The finger placement looks a bit odd, especially for those viewers who might have to scroll the shot a bit to see it in whole. But a minor nit for me. On the technical side, the background isn't completely black from top to bottom, there's some slight texture up top, above the hammer, top left. Again that different monitor issue comes to play *sigh*. Overall, great job. Congratulations on the top20 finish :)

This was one of my challenge favorites and I expected to see it place higher, though #16 isn't bad!

Great photograph Jason. I didn't vote, but this was a favorite of mine for the challenge. I thought it was top 3. Well done.

Beautifully done. Lighting, exposure, processing all done very well. Combination of textures and something interesting to look at that isn't "JUST" texture.

This one deserves to end up close to the top.

A different type of concept - this is an image that demonstates the subject matter of the challenge in sound fashion with excellant DOF and color control. Both a technical and artistic success that more than adequately meets the challenge subject in particular with the grayscale zoning.

Great shot. Looks like something you'd see on a poster. Good work.
